Startups of 2019
Focus Areas
We decided not use exactly defined industries as before, but to look for startups who will fit into five different focus areas which are more general. So it's up to you to think about, whether your blockchain based drone delivery service or your autonomous space shuttle fits into one of these areas and in which one best.
Next Gigabit Society
Energy and telco networks will be more digital and decentralized. In order to enable megatrends like autonomous transportation or P2P trading, hyper-smart networks will become the backbone of our society. Massive broadband connectivity, ultra low latency and smart meter gateways will be key components of future real time services. For next level connectivity you are involved with 5G and Edge Computing technologies. For the best customer experience you focus on AR/VR, autonomous objects (cars, robots, drones), and low-latency advanced media.
Connected World
In the future everything will be connected - cities, factories, households, and individuals. We call this BIG IoT. For next level connectivity, you are looking into automatic identification and data capture as well as smart narrowband technologies, eSIM and edge functionalities. For the best customer experience you are focusing on areas such as: tracking/tracing, efficient manufacturing and logistics, smart city/building enablers, smart home appliances and solutions running on connected devices.
Smart Data Economy
Massive inputs of data and ubiquitous connectivity provide new possibilities to collect and analyze data for better decision making and automation. You focus on smart (real-time) data analytics, predictive maintenance, cyber security, AI / machine learning, FinTech, robot process automation and energy intelligence. Solutions are digital, decentralized and decarbonized.Future Mobility
Future Mobility is the key for tomorrow’s society and provides the chance to make the world a better place. You are working in technological developments in autonomous driving, electric powertrain, shared mobility, energy storage, energy efficiency, charging infrastructure and sustainable materials. Future Mobility will be autonomous, eco-friendly and fun.
The Next Next
You are working on disruptive technologies in uncharted territories with the potential to transform telco, finance, energy and mobility core businesses (e.g. quantum computing, material and neuro science, distributed ledger technologies, human machine interfaces).Food Tech
This is all about new agriculture, food, or gastronomy products, services or technologies with the potential to change and disrupt the agrifood business (e.g. sustainable or healthy food, food waste, new food tech, protein or plant based „meat“, „fish“ or „milk“ products, food service products, food logistic and supply chain solutions, food packaging, digital gastronomy solutions, nutrition apps, agritech applications like drones or robots or smart farming – in B2C, B2B or B2B2C).
